The Different Shapes of Magnets and Their Uses
Magnets are available in a variety of materials, sizes, and shapes. The shape of a magnet, however, can tell you a lot more than size.

Here at FIRST4MAGNETS, we have seen a rise in popularity in the number of properties using electromagnetic locks for their doors.
When it comes to considering factors that can reduce the performance of a magnet it is important to consider air gaps.
Ferrite magnets are amongst the most popular for everyday applications due to their low production cost, and their resistance to heat and corrosion.
Understanding the difference between ferrous and non-ferrous metals is important.
Magnets are everywhere and play an important part in everyday life and even if you don’t realise it, you probably have three magnets in your pocket right now!
It is possible for the very small components of mechanical wristwatches to become magnetised when placed in close proximity to very strong magnetic fields.
FerroPaint® is a water-based emulsion with fine iron particles, that when applied to walls, doors and furniture, creates a ferrous surface.
There are several grades of neodymium available ranging from N35 to N55 alongside high-temperature variations, but these letters and numbers can be confusing.
A permanent magnet if kept and used in optimum working conditions will keep its magnetism for years. Neodymium magnets only lose 5% of their magnetism every 100 years.
